Currents bring in the fish

A 2 hour boat ride from Anilao and an hour and a half from Puerto Galera on a regular banca, (Studies revealed that the ocean currents of Verde Island Passage are relatively stronger along narrow channels like Maricaban Strait. There is a general westward direction of ocean currents in the Verde Island Passage, forming eddies along coastal areas, and concentrating marine life in specific areas like Calatagan. This enhances species survival throughout the Verde Island Passage.)**

Pros- Great Photos, 12mp, Full manual control, Easy to navigate menu via shortcut button. Easy to access Manual White Balance. Video capture good albeit non-HD formatCons- Canon housing prone to leaks and fogs a lot (solution silica gel or cut out baby/femme napkins). Lens port protrusion blocks internal flash, creating badly lit macro shots. Quite old already. Must buy adaptors to use add on wet lenses and several more accessories for external strobe use Bottomline- A camera which takes very good photos and decent video despite being a 2007 release (would you believe was a whopping USD1,099 during first sale). Pre-owned sets are a steal nowadays. Can consider using Third party housings but costs will significantly increase. Wouldn't mind using it as a back up today. Solution to doing macro shots with internal flash, 1. Zoom in 30% to ensure getting the subject in full light (avoiding the shadow caused by the protruding lens port) 2. Manually angle the difuser, bending light towards the subject
